High-speed roll-up doors are a type of door system used in business and industrial applications. Door and Access Systems Manufacturing Association (DASMA) defines high-performance, high-speed doors as powered, sliding or rolling, high-cycle (75-100 openings/closing cycles per day) doors with breakaway features and requiring minimal maintenance. High-speed doors are characterised as having durable construction, able to open and close at high speeds (hence the name), operate smoothly, and having either a horizontal or vertical orientation.

For businesses and manufacturing facilities, high-speed roll-up doors are an essential component for partitioning important, dangerous, or specialised areas inside of a building. They’re employed wherever products, materials, personnel are trafficked or move through a facility, where the doors are required to fulfill a specific purpose. Depending on their intended purpose, high-speed roll-up doors offer a facility or business increased volume processing, efficiency, and smooth logistical flows. In particular, due to their rapid opening and closing, they do an excellent job controlling “air exchange” from different parts of a building, which is key when energy efficiency and hygiene standards are critical. As far as design, high-speed roll-up doors can rigid (i.e. stainless steel), flexible (PVC plastic), or composite materials as required.

Some applications include:
Clean room operations
Cleanroom doors must prevent unnecessary airflow and prevent the spread of airborne contaminants from a common area of a facility into a sterile one.
Food and beverage industries
For beverage manufacturing, high-speed doors are used to create “airlock” solutions, which are crucial for maintaining steady temperature and pressure measurements. In food processing, strict hygiene standards are imperative, so rapid open/closing and easy-to-clean stainless-steel doors are employed.

Automotive Industries
High speed doors are employed to facilitate smooth logistical flows of people, machines, and materials from one part of the facility to the other. They also serve security function, preventing personnel from entering unauthorised areas of the facility.

Production facilities
In facilities where corrosive and noxious materials are used, spark-inducing welding operations occur, and generally in hospitable environmental conditions (such as extreme heat or cold) are necessary, high-speed roll-up doors can effectively partition those operating areas from safer employee locations.

The doors are automatic doors used for fast access between internal and external areas of buildings. The high opening speed reduces time taken in movement of material, thus hastening the logistics process.

Many manufacturing industries nowadays need a controlled environment in which you limit the amount of dirt and dust in the manufacturing premises. Medical instrument manufacturer, electronics and computer manufacturer, food industry, pharmaceutical industry and some military applications are but a few of the examples that have strict requirements for maintaining dust-free environment.

A wide range of Prime High-Speed Doors are available for various operations, including areas with special requirements for temperature control, hygiene, storage and handling of frozen foods, Atex rapid doors are need in explosion proof areas, deep freezer automatic roll up door are need in cold storages, warehousing, loading bays and on conveyor systems. Prime Reset features a special advanced self-repairing system.
